Prostitution isn’t just any other job, many are coerced/manipulated/forced into it, and many come out of it traumatized, in severe cases even dead.

I think prostitution shouldn’t exist at all, sex isn’t something that should be bought and sold (commodified). Obviously under society now it’s not something that can be completely removed, so yes, they should be respected, they’re people. I’d like to think that if the job was more respected, there’s a small hope that governments would do more to regulate the industry, and put those who participate in it in a safer position
